Country Churches

Where have all the COuntry Churches gone?

Where have all the Country Churches gone?
Those days of families and friends gathering to shout halleulujahs,
To meet each others dark days with prayers and tears and comfort,
To rejoice in births and deaths of saints, where have they gone?

Oh churches in small communities who are just playing church,
where are your saints?  Where are those people coming out to ease pain with prayer,
with advice, with the blessed Word of our Beautiful Lord Almighty?
Where have they gone?

The confusion in our towns, our communities, our countryside,
is overwhelming and seemingly roaring against the quiet truth of God.
If we are living in a Mayberry of sorts, where are the real people?
The real Truth?  The Real God?  Who is the imposter who sits in His place?

Country Churches, rise up!  Rise up and take what God has given you!
God gives a harvest to the ready and willing. 
God gives fields of willing and broken and hurting whose hearts are ready to turn to God.
Country Churches take the lead! 

You may sit alone on a hill in the countryside but God is for you!
God is calling the willing in heart to follow and obey in humbles submission!
Remember He Called You!  To Seek Justice!
To Love Mercy!  To Walk Humbly With Your Lord!
